Quote by Titon Rahmawan

“JENAWI II. Kitab Lengkara Tetapi nama siapa nanti yang akan tertera sempurna dalam kitab lengkara, namamukah itu? Ia yang merasa menemu hakekat kebenaran pada ihwal kehidupan yang konon pernah dijanjikan oleh para empu. Selain kilas wajah sebalik topeng atau barangkali sebuah persona kepada siapa engkau mempersembahkan setiap tetes darah yang dengan susah-payah engkau titikkan lewat bujuk rayu atau keras hardikanmu? Sekali badik ditarik pantang kembali ke dalam sarung sebelum ia puas menikam. Tapi demi satu cintaku Tusuklah daku, Sayangku. Tetaklah tubuhku. Tebah - dedahlah dadaku dengan kelebat amarahmu. Tapi jangan engkau abaikan aku. Jangan kautenung aku dengan kilau tatap matamu. Jerau jantung hatimu yang setiap saat ingin mengejar – mencari mati agar esok aku bisa berharap terlahir kembali dalam kekal ingatanmu yang sungguh kutahu betapa pongah itu. Okober 2015”

“Tradisi setiap bangsa adalah modal dan warisan abadi yang mengungkapkan kemajuan dan peradaban yang pernah dicapainya. Setiap bangsa pasti memiliki masa lalu sebelum menginjak masa kini; dan membangun masa kini yang kokoh di atas pijakan masa lalu yang kuat.”

“Tradisi Islam-Arab kita masih sangat membutuhkan kerja keras intelektual yang sistematis lewat kajian cemerlang sehingga dapat menyajikan nilai-nilai budaya Arab orisinal yang bersih dari berbagai kesesatan pemikiran dan penyimpangan akidah kepada generasi saat ini. Sudah barang tentu upaya pengkajian ini harus diawali dengan penyelarasan antara segi-segi maknawi pada tradisi tersebut dengan panduannya yang berasal dari kalangan intelektual terkemuka sehingga tidak lagi terjadi apa yang sering kita dengar dan sering kita lihat tentang eksploitasi tradisi yang berakhir pada kesia-siaan dan suatu saat hanya menjadi beban kekecewaan.”

“The movies were just kind of figuring out how to use computers in 2003, and nobody was just kind of figuring out how to use computers harder than Michael Bay. It’s tempting to say that every frame of Bad Boys II looks like a TV commercial, but truly every frame looks like a print advertisement, like those Candies ads where Jenny McCarthy’s taking a shit, shallow and glossy and tinged acid green. There are four car chases, one of which is at least fifteen minutes long. Even the most passing transitions are giddily tasteless: the camera EXPLODES out of the speedboat’s tailpipe and ZOOMS across Biscayne Bay and WHAMS down the ventilation shaft in the backward sunglasses factory and SHOOMPS into the buttcrack of a raver’s low-rise jeans and SPROINGS across her transverse colon and SQUEAKS through her appendix and AIRHORNS out her belly button and PLOPS into the Cuban drug lord’s mojito as he shoots his favorite nephew in the head while saying, “Adios, kemosabe,” or something fucking cool like that. When faced with a choice, Bay picks “all of the above” every time. He’s like a dog in one of those obedience trials who’s like, “Obedience? I don’t know her,” and just goes buck wild on the sausages. Except instead of “obedience” it’s “having a coherent plot that holds the audience’s attention” and instead of “sausages” it’s “explosions, Ferrari chases, and how many different cool kinds of box could a gun come in.”

“Thing that got me was not her list of things she hated, since she was obviously crazy as a Cyborg, but fact that always somebody agreed with her prohibitions. Must be a yearning deep in human heart to stop other people from doing as they please. Rules, laws — always for other fellow. A murky part of us, something we had before we came down out of trees, and failed to shuck when we stood up. Because not one of those people said: "Please pass this so that I won't be able to do something I know I should stop." Nyet, tovarishchee, was always something they hated to see neighbors doing. Stop them "for their own good" — not because speaker claimed to be harmed by it.”

“The accession of not one but three illegal drug users in a row to the US presidency constitutes an existential challenge to the prohibitionist regime. The fact that some of the most successful people of our time, be it in business, finances, politics, entertainment or the arts, are current or former substance users is a fundamental refutation of its premises and a stinging rebuttal of its rationale. A criminal law that is broken at least once by 50% of the adult population and that is broken on a regular basis by 20% of the same adult population is a broken law, a fatally flawed law. How can a democratic government justify a law that is consistently broken by a substantial minority of the population? What we are witnessing here is a massive case of civil disobedience not seen since alcohol prohibition in the 1930 in the US. On what basis can a democratic system justify the stigmatization and discrimination of a strong minority of as much as 20% of its population?”

“Prohibitionism is based on the premise that citizens will refrain from behaviors that are deemed immoral or harmful if such behaviors are decreed unlawful and criminal, even though such behaviors do not harm or unreasonably endanger others without their informed consent. Prohibitionism stems from totalitarian paternalism, an ideology rather prevalent among governing elites around the world, based on the presumption that people are feeble, foolish and irresponsible, needing constant protection from themselves.”
